The government can and should take steps to ensure greater safety without stalling the energy renaissance that is creating good jobs, growing our economy and improving America’s energy security. New proposals for safety improvements should be data-driven, involve all stakeholders and produce measurable improvements to safety without creating new risks, or inadvertently shifty the risks to other businesses or operations.
